I had it wish listed. I removed it. Was going to get it after my next paycheck.

Vast majority of players are unaffected. If you look at steam charts, the playercount has remained pretty stagnant. This is only something you’d hear people complain about on Reddit or Twitter

I was going to buy it for my 4 days off (starting from today), but Sony saved me 40 euro + the price of the battle pass.

Was about to start saving money for it, glad it took me so long

I have been playing Earth Defence Force 5 and figured I’d give Helldivers 2 a go when the PSN linking news happened on the same day. Sometimes timing works out really well.

You’re not missing out. The constant influx of news about the game makes it seem larger than life but it isn’t. I have it and I don’t even play it anymore.
The social media campaign makes the game sound really charming and it’s fun watching the devs interact with the players like they have been, but to be honest that and the humor are the best parts of the game.
The gameplay loop is iterative of other games that have done it in more interesting ways. The huge wave of people talking about DRG highlights that pretty starkly. The games couldn’t be more different while still having such a similar gameplay loop, and having played DRG extensively prior to this game, I never had a drive to play this game thoroughly because it felt like a more restricted version of that game, gameplay wise.

It was a fucking blast while it lasted. Wish Sony hadn’t fuck up this

Well, I got over 100 hours out of it, so I’m quite happy either way.
It was a fun game, I would definitely recommend it if it weren’t for the PSN requirement.

I haven’t played Helldivers II and probably wasn’t going to, and I am definitely *not* happy for people affected by this. It’s just another symptom of the sickness that makes all of gaming just a little bit shittier year after year, game after game.

I was just about to convince a friend to buy it so we could play together
I am happy that I avoided a bullet but it’s still sad that all of this happened
I wanted to play it because of the community, what’s the point now?
Fuck you greedy pigs

I wanted to play it so bad but I do not have a PS5 or PC. Now I’m just enjoying cyberpunk on my xbox

Hooray for being poor and having bills to pay I guess…
Also the PCMR curator is still reccomending it .

I was waiting until it went on sale for 10$ once everyone got bored of it

I’m still gonna buy the game. I already have a Sony account so for me it’s fine, but I totally understand the frustration.

Well, I have no friends on my steam account anyway so, good for me 👍

Eh, the game isnt bad, its just an extremely scummy and greedy choice by SONY not the devs. I was planning on getting this. And probably still will when they unfortunately and inevitably lower the price
